they never slip off and leave the little
one exposed to the cold, as it often
is if taken by strangers for few mo-
ments just to see if il looks like
papa or mamma. Blankets are more
easily made, and consequently more
generally used, but the wrappers are
the most desirable. The bands to the
skirts should be made after the dress
reform patterns, and that does away
with the use of many pins. After the
child is dressed give it a tea-spoonful of
cool water, feeding it few drops at a
time. Never neglect to give cold water
each day Immediately after the bath. 1t
is very essential until the child is sew

What Charles Reade really meant was that
nine-tenths of actual women prove to he
hampers on good talk, sit dumb and unre-
sponsive, fail to follow beyond a certain
conventional range, have seen, observed
and experienced too little to make any real
contribution to what is going on, and that,
consequently the men feel constrained,
and, out of mere politeness, have to abandon
the idea of giving free play to their powers.
OF course all this may be an utter mistake
on the part of "A large number of men. Still,
even though a thorough mistake, it is so
prevalent and so continually acted on as to
lead to widespread and deplorable practical
results. Except at dancing or purely social
parties men, as rule, gradually herd,
like stays, together, as though instinc-
lively sure of a sympathetic response
from one another on the subjects that
interest them. They find it hard to
keep up a continuous conversation with
women. They say, Oh, am not ladies
man 20 as though lady's man were one
thing and mans man another Unques-
tionably all this is evidence of low state
of civilization. None the less it stands for
what is largely fact to-day everywhere, in
truth but in a few lotteries of exceptionally
cultivated men and women. Whose fault
is it, mans or woman's? Nether's, proba-
bly,, but the result of the long Inheritance
of the past Legally, women have become
emancipated in thousand ways. But So
cially they have not become emancipated.
Timidity paralyzes the faculties of the great
Al. 4 { I,,t
themselves GO" They talk as though an
apology were due for their venturing on
having opinions. They have not acquired
the momentum or the play that comes of
the habit of free expression. They are
strangers to what Milton calls " the formid-
able independence begotten of converse
with truth" Once in awhile an exception
is found, and if such independence and per-
sonal flavor are accompanied by grace and
charm no women are so enthusiastically
welcomed. PROFESSIONALLY the broader
education, wider range of pursuits and
more active interest in a variety of social
reforms, is steadily increasing the number
of such exceptions. Still, they need to be
amazingly multiplied before men like
Charles Reade will enter in their journals,
"a pleasant dinner-as it always is when
there are ladies to give inspiration and
range to the conversation" Why, then,
would not all this furnish a capital practi-
cal subject for discussion at the next
women's convention i? Steel-ribbed and
whalebone-ribbed corsets, bad as they are
in the injury they infict on the vital organs,
are mere trifes in comparison with those
strait-jackets of paralyzing timidity and alb
| surd Difference to men that keep such thou
sands of women from telling socially for
what they are. The men would raise three
cheers for the reform; especially should it
begin with their own wives, sisters and
daughters, of whom they are so proud and
do wish so from their hearts that the
Ossa and Pelion could be rolled off from
them which makes them so often seen in
public the interiors of the cheapest male
! fools.

The Old Log House.

True, it is matched, and all its windows are gone
pane;
Yet there's plenty of light in twilight or dawn
For the old roof admits light as well as the rain
oh, yes, long ago all its timbers were sound
And pleasure and happiness reigned meath its
dome;
Though its builders are Wondering now in the
ground,
Yet the Lighthouse remains It's somebody's home
The smoke of the chimney goes up as of yore,
Through the woods the voice echoes of old chant
ceer;
And children are playing around by the door,
Where in by-gone days stood the brave pioneer.
The pioneer came and erected the home,
And the old forest tree in time disappeared;
While winter and summer go they came!
Where the builders who the old forest cleared?
The weeds and the briars cover the wall,
While the barn and the sheds and the fences are
gone,
And a kind of gloom hangs around like pail
And the thickets grown all over the lawn.
The logs are quite rotten and, some falling out,
The doorway much lower the roof falling in;
Slowly but surely grim Decay turks about,
And Time will soon gather the old building in!
oh, yes long ago all its timbers were sound
And pleasure and happiness reigned meath its
dome;
Though its builders are Wondering now in the
ground,
Yet the Lighthouse remains tits somebody's home.

Care of Infants.

When these tiny buds of promise are
ushered upon the great sea of humanity
how necessary that we should under
stand how to care for their health and
the development of all their powers for
their highest good-not only for the
benefit of the child, but that the world,
by the continued effort of mothers,
shall become place which more nearly
heaven may be. The necessary arti-
Giles to be prepared beforehand for the
little stranger we will enumerate: A
good-sized fiat box or basket, to be or
namented or not, as fancy and the
length of your purse may render it
necessary. This should contain piece
of pure soap, a small box of corn
starch, with powder-puff or substitute
formed of white wadding. For this
cut strip of wadding two inches wide
and three-eighths of yard long; roll
up quite firmly and fasten strongly with
thread at one end for handle Then
pull apart the wadding at the other end
sufficiently to make it soft, so the
powder can be applied evenly over the
skin. You should also have a large
square piece of old linen or cotton Gun
hemmed) in preference to sponge,
roll of old linen and one of soft old
cotton cloth, box of vasaline or NUT
ton tallow, ball of white cotton yarn,
a bottle of sweet oil, paper of small
safety-pins and a half-dozen of large
pins. AS soon as practicable our in
FAINT must be bathed tenderly with the
soft square of cloth and plenty of warm
water and fine soap. Then the moisture
must be absorbed by soft towel, or,
better still, an old handkerchief. In
some instances, where the child is COW
cred by substance that cannot be re-
moved readily by the soap and water,
then lay aside the articles in use and
simply anoint the whole body thoroughly
but tenderly with sweet oil. Wrap the
child in an old shawl and let it remain
for some minutes as quiet as possible.
Then try bathing as before. After the
skin is clean and comparatively dry dust
on the starch over the whole body, and
then take soft handkerchief and brush
off all the loose particles of the starch.
1t is unsafe to use any of the patented
face-powders, and we are all aware of
the purity of corn-starch The object
of the powdering is to dry the skin so
it will not chafe. Now the child is
ready to be dressed. First put on a
band of soft cotton cloth Gold cloth is
the besD. This is only to be worn next
the skin but day or so. Place COM
press on the bowels, after a cloth has
been applied, with plenty of vasaline,
and pin the band over this. Pin quite
firmly just over the bowels but loosely
around the chest. Then put on fan
mel band Use safety-pins to fasten the
bands with. After this comes the tiny
shirt, made of soft flannel or knit OF
SaXony wool. Then comes the pin
ming blanket, skirt, soft cotton night
dress or double gown made of light
print. Flannel wrappers, to be worn
over all are preferable to blanket, fol

Do Not Loaf.

Charles Dickens says that " the first
external revelation of the dry-rot in
men is tendency to lurk and lounge;
to be at street-corners without intelli-
gible reason.' If this be so, good
many young fellows in all of our towns
and cities show the first symptoms.
They had better get rid of them by not
lounging where there is nothing for
them to do The worst of it is that
the dry-rot is often step in the road
to ,cet-rot, for the usual lounging- place
is at the corner where liquor is sold,
and nothing is easier than to drop in at
the " saloon" or the grocery for a
drink. Do not loaf ETchange.
